Find a Job And Feed Your Career

We all continue to evolve in our careers, some more so than others. I remember in the past finding a job just looking in the various journals or just simply in my local newspaper. Well, those days are long gone – thanks in part to the nuances of social media and the job boards that are available to us today. For example HIMSS Career Services has a nationally recognized job board, HIMSS JobMine®, that has thousands of hits monthly from employers seeking to employ and an opportunity to post your resume for employment consideration. And remember, the HIMSS JobMine® job board, which is a part of the HIMSS Professional Development Career Services activities, allows all to post their resume at no charge.
